Unable to book the SC200 or any Microsoft certification exam

Question

When I attempt to book an exam, I am presented with a page to enter my location and contact details but then when I click on next to proceed to the next step I receive a «Unexpected Error».

Answer 1

Are you seeing ERROR_VUE_WIDE_BLOCK in the URL when you try and schedule the exam?

ERROR_VUE_WIDE_BLOCK is typically because your account has been blocked by Pearson Vue which normally happens because of multiple failed payments. You need to contact Pearson Vue support using the link on https://aka.ms/CertificationSupport to get the block lifted.
